Bottoms up, beer lovers, because wine fans aren’t the only ones who get to rationalize their drinking habits anymore! Researchers examining 16 studies involving some 200,000 participants have concluded that drinking about a pint of beer a day reduces your risk of heart disease by an average of 31%, LiveScience reports, a benefit similar to that of drinking a glass of wine a day.

But don’t throw a kegger just yet: As with wine, drinking too much increased risk drastically. Researchers also added that they don’t recommend adopting a beer-per-day habit purely to improve heart health. One dietician says the results are “not surprising,” since wine and beer both include alcohol, which, in moderation, can boost your HDL count. “You're kind of walking a tightrope, if you will, with alcohol,” she says. “Once you go beyond moderation, you’re potentially going to experience negative health effects.”

Just more left wing bomb thrower propaganda aimed at lowering your resistance, which in turn makes it easier for that cum from behind http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=ass+clown Obama to sneak up on your rear end. Remember to always CYA, literally.
